Bacon Spinach Dip | Snack Recipe | The Ultimate Chef

SERVINGS: 8

This is the ultimate spinach dip recipe! I’ve eaten spinach dip so very many times in my life but this one beats them all. It is cheesy, creamy, garlicky, and perfect with fresh veggies or crackers.

Directions

Preheat oven to 350.

Cook bacon until crisp, drain, and crumbled or chop it into small pieces.

In a large bowl mix the cream cheese, mayo, garlic powder, and parmesan cheese.

Mix in the spinach, half the bacon, and half the mozzarella.

Spread in a deep dish pie plate.

Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and bacon on top.

Bake at 350 until hot and bubbly.

About 15 minutes.

NOTES: Alternatively, you can microwave the dip for about 5 minutes. The only downside to microwaving is the cheese doesn’t get golden on top. But on a hot summer day that is a sacrifice, I am willing to make. Also, if you are an artichoke fan, feel free to add some for a Bacon Caesar Spinach Artichoke Dip.
